Menendez brothers score crucial legal victory in decades-long fight as they await potential freedom
As infamous killer brothers Erik and Lyle Mendendez wait for their August parole hearing, they have scored a legal victory on another front, this time in the form of new evidence they say could have led to their acquittal. The pair, who admitted to killing their parents, Mary "Kitty" and Jose Menendez, in a bloody 1989 shotgun massacre inside their Beverly Hills home, claimed for years that their actions were self-defense stemming from a lifetime of physical and sexual abuse. A July 8 court order obtained by Fox News Digital will force the state to explain why evidence to that effect was barred from their trial. About eight months before the double-homicide, Erik allegedly wrote a letter to his cousin, Andy Cano, claiming that Jose had sexually abused him and Lyle. Further, an affidavit from Roy Rossello, a member of a boy band called Menudo, claimed Jose, a record executive, raped him when he was a 14-year-old boy in 1983 or 1984. Rossello made the claim almost 40 years after the alleged rape. In March 2023, the brothers filed a habeas petition claiming that if they had been allowed to use the Cano letter as evidence, and if Rossello's claim had been made before and presented at their second trial, a jury would not have convicted them. In an informal response to that petition, filed by Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman's office in February of this year, prosecutors denied that the letter and the affidavit constituted new evidence. They said that the Cano letter was "untimely." They also said the Rossello affidavit was "inadmissible, immaterial, and lacks credibility." But the July 8 order, handed down by Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge William C. Ryan, said that the letter and the affidavit constitute a prima facie showing that the brothers are entitled to habeas relief. The district attorney's office is now subject to a "show cause" response in the next 30 days. In their response, Hochman's office must explain why the brothers' habeas relief should not be granted. The brothers sought a new trial in 2023, but have since shifted their focus to their own resentencing, which they were granted in May. Judge Michael Jesic resentenced the brothers to 50 years to life with the possibility of parole. They were previously serving life without parole. Since, the brothers have been eagerly awaiting that parole hearing. After it was initially scheduled for June 13, it was postponed until August 21 and 22. They have spent 35 years behind bars.

Tucker Carlson claims Jeffrey Epstein worked for Israel to blackmail US officials: ‘Every single person in DC thinks that'
Tucker Carlson has claimed that deceased child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was working for the Israeli government and that 'every single person in Washington D.C.' thinks the same. 'I've never met anyone who doesn't think that. I don't know any of them that hate Israel. But no one feels they can say that,' the former Fox News host told an audience in Florida on Friday. Carlson also suggested that the disgraced financier may have been running 'a blackmail operation' as he discussed new information recently released by the Department of Justice. A two-page memo from the DOJ and FBI said that Epstein had no 'client list,' and that the convicted pedophile died by suicide in his jail cell in 2019, shortly before going to trial – angering some among the MAGA faithful. Speaking about the development at a Turning Point USA summit in Tampa, Carlson slammed the findings of the administration.'The real question is, why was he doing this, on whose behalf, and where did the money come from?' he said. 'I think the real answer is Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of intel services, probably not American. And we have every right to ask, on whose behalf was he working? 'Now, no one's allowed to say that the foreign government is Israel because we have been somehow cowed into thinking that's naughty. There is nothing wrong with saying that. There is nothing hateful about saying that, Carlson said. 'There's nothing anti-Semitic about saying that. There's nothing even anti-Israel about saying that. 'And you have the right to expect your government will not act against your interests, and you have a right to demand that foreign governments not be allowed to act against your interests.' Carlson has become one of the the big names on the list of MAGA luminaries who are irate over the DOJ's conclusions and previously insisted there was an 'obvious' reason why Attorney General Pam Bondi was 'covering up' the 'client list.' In addition, footage capturing Epstein's final hours – also released by the DOJ – has fuelled further conspiracy theories, after it appeared to have a minute of footage missing. A digital clock visible on the bottom left corner of the footage jumps from 11:58:58 p.m. to 12:00:00 a.m. Officials have not yet offered an explanation for the time gap to The Independent or the New York Times.
